Joe Sheehan joins Eno and DVR to discuss dropping the skepticism around the Tigers as AL Central frontrunners, where credit (and blame) belong with the 2025 Giants, over-performing teams they expect to see fade from the playoff picture over the course of the season, and under-performing teams they believe will find their way into the playoffs. Plus, the lack of top-end results from Jordan Walker despite top-end bat speed, and a few selections for summer breakouts.
5:30 Should We Believe in the Tigers?
12:41 The 'Bustarhan' Giants Are Pretty Good
21:18 Best Teams Today That Won't Make the Playoffs This Season
25:15 Is the Guardians' Pitching Development Fading?
30:57 2025 Playoffs Teams with Worst Record on May 13th?
39:41 Why Are Teams Reluctant to Make 'Early' Trades?
46:12 Jordan Walker: Top-End Bat Speed, Without Top-End Results
